GLP-1 meds (like Ozempic & Mounjaro) help with weight loss—but they’re not magic.
💪 Eat protein to protect muscle
🥦 Choose whole foods
🚫 Avoid extreme diets
🏋️‍♂️ Add resistance training
🧠 Manage stress & sleep

Meds stop working without lifestyle change.

Gave a talk after 21 hours awake, 3 cities, 2 planes, and a long drive. Pretty sure I explained platelets as a jazz band improvising clot formation.
Honestly, might be onto something. True Gordon Conference vibes.

NIH funding plays a critical role in making these meetings accessible. The NIH provides essential travel support, allowing early-career researchers and trainees to attend, present, and engage with experts in the field.

As an early-career scientist, I feel the weight of
NIH uncertainty—right before major career development grant deadlines. My take on how this impacts early-career researchers, regardless of political views:

My first official day of 2025 has turned into a work-from-home day due to our delightful snowstorm.

I’m excited to see what the year has in store for us!

I’m in the best lab—hands down. Who else gets surprised with a charcuterie board with their face on it during a lab meeting to celebrate their @ahascience.bsky.social grant?

Huge thanks to Brittney for always having everyone’s back and making it extra special!

At #AHA24, the BPROAD trial: Stricter BP control saves lives! A new study shows targeting a systolic BP <120 mmHg significantly reduces CVD risk in adults with T2D compared to <140 mmHg.
